BREAKING PROTESTERS SHUT DOWN BAY BRIDGE
Thursday morning starting around 8am - a coalition of organizers currently holding down the Bay Bridge saying -
#FreePalestine
& NO TO APEC!
RIGHT NOW:
Disgraced Los Angeles City Councilmember Kevin De Leon JUST assaulted local organizer Jason Reedy.
@kdeleon
is out here assaulting people AGAIN. He was caught on those racist anti-Black leaked tapes and now he’s assaulting Black folks. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
Pelosi also questioned the policy wisdom of cancelling student loan debt:
“Suppose…your child just decided they, at this time, [do] not want to go to college but you’re paying taxes to forgive somebody else’s obligations. You may not be happy about that."
We looped the Exxon lobbyist talking about the company's relationship with Joe Manchin and Joe Biden over the video of the Gulf of Mexico engulfed in flames.
This is our future. Don't forget who is responsible.

If Biden can’t adequately and immediately address the mass drop he has had in the polls with young people there is no path to victory. Simply wanting it to be different or acting like there is no problem doesn’t change the fact we have a major problem.
There’s been a beautiful ceremony in front of the Minnesota state Capitol led by Indigenous elders and water protectors all day. We are fortunate to have been in community with everyone here.
The fight doesn’t end here. We aren’t free until we’re all free ✊✊✊

COPS ARE STANDING DOWN!!!
Shoutout to all of the amazing water protectors and land defenders that showed up, held it down, and put their bodies on the line. Shoutout everyone at home that amplified what was happening! Solidarity forever.

Police killed more people in America in 2022 than any other year on record. At least 1,176 people were killed by police nationwide - 3.2 killings per day.
There will be many groups that try to claim this victory. It wasn’t the Lincoln Project or moderate Republicans.
It was young, people of color that brought home the win for Biden.
Cuomo resigns blaming rampant anti-Italian sentiments and deep seeded Fredophobia that exist in American politics, denies allegations of assault again despite ample proof
President Biden on climate change: “There's a lot of threats our children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren are going to face. This is the only truly existential threat.”
AIPAC is telling lawmakers that there is no starvation in Gaza.
Some of these lawmakers call themselves progressive and some are even in the Progressive Caucus.
We should be asking what exactly is progressive about denying a famine.
When asked about US voters upset with the choice between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton says:
"Get over yourself. Those are the two choices."
Really glad to see she's learned lessons from her 2016 defeat then!
